The full-on Townsend-Moon hooter.

The green door rattled, opening inward a few inches. A blond forelock and one blue eye edged past it. This should've looked ridiculous, childish, but she found it frightening. "Hollis Henry," he said, his voice no longer tiny, gender restored. The rest of Bobby's head appeared. He had, as indeed had Inchmale, the true and archaic rock nose. The full-on Townsend-Moon hooter. She only ever found this problematic in males who hadn't become pop musicians; it seemed, then, in some weirdly inverted way, affected. It looked, to her, as though they'd grown large noses in order to look like rock musicians. More weirdly, perhaps, they all tended-certified accountants, radiologists, or whatever-to the flopping forelock that had traditionally gone with it, back in Muswell Hill or Denmark Street. This, she'd once reasoned, must be due in one of two ways to hairdressers. Either they saw the rock mega-nose and dressed the hair above it out of a call to historical tradition, or they weighed the issue in some instinctive, deeply hairdresserly way, arriving at that massive slash and heft of eye-obscuring forelock through some simple sense of balance.
Bobby Chombo hadn't much in the way of a chin, though, so perhaps it all was balance for that.

I love the goggles

dylan faden in agent outfit, shirt sleeves rolled, and technical vest, looking back at the viewer. he has a heavy beard and long dark hair, and is wearing angular tinted goggles. there’s a weird structure in the background, not that this narrows it down much

blurred abstract frame. washed in haze. one small out of focus light source in the distance, perhaps
